Pulmonary infections due to brucellosis in childhood

Öz:
Introduction: Brucellosis is widely distributed zoonotic infection. Brucellosisis a multisystemic disease but pulmonary infection due to brucellosis is veryrarely reported.Materials and Methods: We retrospectively evaluated our pediatric brucellosiscases between February 2014 and December 2015. The brucellosis patientswith and without pulmonary infection were compared with each other.Results: We detected pulmonary infection in 18 of the 98 brucellosispatients. There was no statistical significant difference between the brucellosispatients with and without a pulmonary infection as regards age, gender, andanimal husbandry history. The laboratory findings including the BrucellaCoombs agglutination titers were also similar. The most common chest X-rayfindings were interstitial infiltration and hilar lymphadenopathy. All of ourcases with pulmonary infection recovered with the usual anti-brucellatreatment.Conclusion: Brucellosis may cause a pulmonary infection more often thanthought. The prognosis of respiratory brucellosis is good and the classictreatment regimen is appropriate.

Giriş: Bruselloz tüm dünyada en yaygın görülen zoonotik infeksiyon hastalığıdır. Bruselloz multisistemik bir hastalıktır ancak bruselloza bağlı akciğer infeksiyonu nadiren bildirilmiştir. Materyal ve Metod: Pediatrik bruselloz olgularımızı geriye dönük olarak araştırdık ve respiratuvar komplikasyonu olan bruselloz hastalarımızı inceledik. Respiratuvar komplikasyonu olan ve olmayan hastalarımızı birbirleriyle kıyasladık. Bulgular: Doksan sekiz brusellozlu olgunun 18’inde akciğer infeksiyonu vardı. Akciğer infeksiyonu olan ve olmayan hastalar arasında yaş, cinsiyet ve hayvancılık yapma öyküsü yönünden istatistiksel fark yoktu. Laboratuvar bulguları ve Brucella Coombs aglütinasyon titreleri benzerdi. En sık akciğer bulgusu interstisyel infiltrasyon ve hilar lenfadenopatiydi. Akciğer infeksiyonu olan tüm hastalar klasik bruselloz tedavisi ile düzeldi. Sonuç: Bruselloz akciğer infeksiyonuna düşünüldüğünden daha sık yol açıyor olabilir. Respiratuvar brusellozun prognozu iyidir ve tedavisinde klasik tedavi rejimi uygundur.
